Stronger reporting requirements focus of anti-fraud bill
House.mn.gov
If you see something, say something.
Best known as part of a national campaign by the Department of Homeland Security to raise public awareness about terrorism and the importance of reporting suspicious activity to authorities, the phrasing is apt for a potential change in Minnesota.
Calling it a bill about “desperately needed accountability,” Rep. Ben Davis (R-Merrifield) sponsors HF2 that would require mandatory and immediate reporting by state employees if they suspect fraud in a program administered by the agency.
The notification would go to their supervisor, the Department of Administration, Office of the Legislative Auditor, law enforcement and the chairs and ranking minority members of legislative committees with jurisdiction over that agency’s budget. Current statute encourages such reporting.
Employees would have whistleblower protection.
